*Beau Jest*

*Classic Theater Guild*

*October/November 2018*





Sarah is a nice Jewish girl with a problem: her parents want her married to
a nice Jewish boy.  They have never met her boyfriend, a WASP executive
named Chris Cringle.  She tells them she is dating a Jewish doctor and they
insist on meeting him.  She plans a dinner party and, over the heated
protests of Chris, employs an escort service to send her a Jewish date to
play the role of Dr. Steinberg.  Instead, they send Bob Schroeder, an
aspiring actor, and a Christian, who agrees to perform the
impersonation.  Happily, he is extremely convincing in the role, and
Sarah's parents are enraptured.  Soon, even Sarah falls for Bob.  Comedic
complications ensue.



The cast includes Paige Paddock, Michael Silvia, Jesse Braverman, Michele
Marchese, Amy Birchler, and Yash Thakur.  John Birchler directs.



Performances take place at the Congregation Beth Israel, 2195 Eastern
Parkway, Schenectady.  Dates are October 25, 27, 28, and 31, and November
1, 3, and 4.  Evening performances begin at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday matinees
begin at 2:00 p.m.  Tickets cost $20/$18 for seniors and students.
